Maggie Vandewalle minns en barndom delad mellan två passioner – en omättlig kärlek till läsning och en djup fascination för naturen. Dessa tidiga intressen ligger till grund för hennes målningar av nyckfulla varelser, vars upptåg ofta framkallar ett leende eller känslan av att ha klivit rakt in i en märklig resa.
The moose and mouse illustration is so charming, it made my whole family smile when they opened it. I've been a fan of her nature-inspired artwork for years, and this card captures that same warmth perfectly.
The moose and mouse illustration is charming without being cutesy, and the card stock feels thick enough to stand up on a mantel. I sent it to my sister who reads to her kids every night, and she texted me a photo of it framed.
I love that the card captures the illustrator's unique childhood connection to nature and reading—it feels so personal. The paper quality is nice and thick, though I wish the envelope were a bit more substantial.
